Barn Door Console Table with Hidden TV Lift

Confession time: Sometimes I like to watch movies while lounging in bed, or folding laundry at the foot of my bed. 🙂 However the best wall in my bedroom for a TV to be mounted, is visible from the entry way and family room area. I don’t love having the ugly side view of the TV mount showing. I have a clever solution, a barn door console table with a hidden TV lift!

Build a sliding barn door console table with a secret...a hidden TV lift.

When the barn doors are shut, a shallow decor shelf area is visible. Then open the barn doors to reveal a deeper shelf area for media storage.

It really is a great solution to my problem. No TV permanently mounted to the wall, just a cut X Barn Door Console Table!

The Barn door console table with hidden TV lift looks great while not in use, it hides the electronics that I don’t want seen at all times…and is really cool.

The TV lift cabinet mechanism and remote control are the key to this project – you can see more here.

The Lisa Side Table

I picked up some fun rustic cherry wood that was on a clearance sale a little while back. With no project in mind, it has been patiently waiting to be turned into something useful and beautiful. I finally decided on a small side table to use up the wood. The side details on the Lisa Side Table are totally optional, but I think they add a lot to the look of the side table.

Build a end table with diamond details on the side panels.

I have been testing out the DEWALT 20 volt circular saw during this build and it has been cutting smooth as butter through the cherry hardwood.

Farmhouse X Nightstand Plans

New plans for a farmhouse nightstand with X detail. I built a pair of these nightstands to go with my King X Barndoor Farmhouse Bed. The nightstand has 3 generous sized drawers to hold all your stuff. The side planking and X detail mimic the style of the Farmhouse Bed. Generally speaking a nightstand should be about the same height of the top of the mattress. You can adjust the height of the nightstand legs to fit your needs.

Budget Laundry Room Cabinet Plans

If you’ve been wanting to add storage to your laundry room, these laundry room cabinet plans are for very budget friendly cabinets. The tall cabinet is great for storing and organizing cleaning supplies and a vacuum. The small folding table gives space to fold laundry and fits 2 standard laundry baskets in the shelves. The 2 upper cabinets fit wonderfully above the washer and dryer. My sister in law has been wanting some cabinets to help organize her laundry room. She picked a fun paint color Zen for the cabinets. They completely transformed her room and added so much storage!
